The equation 44 - x + 2x = 50 can be used to determine the number of cats/kittens adopted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of cats/kittens at the event = 44

Number of cats/kittens at the end of event = 50

Let,

x be the number of cats/kittens adopted

Therefore;

Number of cats/kittens returned = 2x

Number of cats/kittens at the event - adopted + returned = Number at the end of event

44 - x + 2x = 50

The equation 44 - x + 2x = 50 can be used to determine the number of cats/kittens adopted.

How do you factor 7+14
mote1985 [20]

You could factor a 7 out of 7 + 14 to get 7(1 + 2).

This would equal the same thing as 7 + 14, which is 21.

7 * 3 = 21.

21 can be factored like so:

1 * 21 = 21

3 * 7 = 21
